Ingredients

5-6 wedges or blocks of cheese, such as sharp cheddar, brie, white cheddar, asiago, manchego, and parmesan.
3-4 assorted meats, such as prosciutto, soppresata, and genoa salami
6-7 assorted seasonal fruits and vegetables, such as raspberries, blackberries, bartlett pear, figs, honeycrisp apple, and olives
assorted nuts, such as roasted pecans and candied almonds
Spicy Cheese Crackers, or a variety of your favorite crackers
Cranberry Sauce

Instructions

Cut cheeses into desired shapes.
Set out meat. Allow meats and cheeses to come to room temperature.
Starting with the largest things first (brie, olives, etc.), place onto board or serving platter. Fill in with meats, fruits, nuts, and crackers.
Serve immediately.

Notes

Use high quality meats and cheeses for the best flavor profiles.
Cut the cheese while it's cold for best results. If using a cookie cutter to cut brie, remember that the brie will stick. You will need to gently push each side down slowly to keep it from ripping.
Make sure everything is room temperature before serving. This brings out the flavor!
Enjoy this board with homemade components like crackers, roasted nuts, or candied nuts.
Make sure the fruits you buy are in season. This gives you the best flavors.
We serve this board with our Homemade Cranberry Sauce, but don't forget serving honey or any other condiment you may like with your cheeses and meats!
